Summary "Luotsi ja hänen vaimonsa" by Jonas Lie is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around a coastal pilot named Salve Kristiansen, who is known for his bravery and skill in navigating dangerous waters. The narrative explores themes of family, the struggles of a seafaring man, and the complexities of his relationship with his wife and son, set against the backdrop of a maritime community. The opening of the novel introduces Salve Kristiansen, a pilot with a reputation for facing treacherous weather while rescuing stranded ships. Despite his heroic acts, he bears a reputation for gruffness and is plagued by personal demons, including a tendency toward drinking. The tension in his marriage with his wife is palpable as she navigates her fears and the unpredictability of her husband's moods when he returns from sea. Salve's son, Gjert, appears to admire his father while trying to carve out his own identity amidst the maritime adventures and familial expectations that influence their lives. This initial chapter sets a vivid and emotional tone for the tale ahead. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
